Abstract

This assessment by External Evaluator Abt Associates found that the AgResults project played a role in creating a niche market for PVA maize, although with limited development impact because the market involved mostly better-off smallholder farmers and urban consumers. Findings suggested that the market would likely be sustained in the short to medium term.

This work is part of the AgResults programme
